Автор:SABINA ISLAM Год: 2010 Издание:LAP Lambert Academic Publishing Страниц: 148 ISBN: 9783838385464 A study of demographic models helps to understand the observed phenomena in a better way and to implement intervention programs and population policies. The main objective of this study is to develop some models on demographic variables viz., post-partum amenorrhoea (PPA), breastfeeding (BF), first birth interval (FBI), fertility and stable population theory. Differentials and determinants of these factors have also been studied. Chapters II, III, IV and V have discussed the behavior of human fertility in some way or others.

Some probability models are proposed to study the distribution of FBI of migrated couples and hence the level of fecundability of such couples has been estimated. A comparative study of various indirect techniques is worked out and the suitability of a particular method is judged by...
